Notes:
EmMaj7 = 0210xx
1. I tried several different capo positions, and this one is the easiest to play, IMHO.
2. The EmMaj7 chord in the intro is the closest I could come to the correct sound (In this key.
In the original key, it's a D/F# chord.) If you have an alternative to the EmMaj7 chord to
suggest for this key, please post a note.
